NOTE 1. | BASIS OF PREPARATION AND OTHER |
Basis of Preparation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. There has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Rollins, Inc. (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2019 other than updates related to Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments as noted below. Accordingly, the quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures herein should be read in conjunction with the 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions for the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Specifically, the Company makes estimates in its interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the termite accrual, which includes future costs including termiticide life expectancy and government regulations, the insurance accrual, which includes self-insurance and worker’s compensation, inventory adjustments, discounts and volume incentives earned, among others.
In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the U.S. and the world. This has resulted in authorities implementing numerous measures to contain the virus, including, but not limited to, travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and business limitations and shutdowns. The pest control industry was designated as “essential” by the Department of Homeland Security and the Company has been able to remain operational in every part of the world in which it operates. The Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the assumptions and estimates used in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial results for the quarter have been made. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature but complicated by the uncertainty surrounding the global economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. The severity, magnitude and duration, as well as the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. Therefore, our accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to COVID-19 and may change materially in future periods.
The Company has only one reportable segment, its pest and termite control business. The Company’s results of operations and its financial condition are not reliant upon any single customer, a few customers, or the Company’s foreign operations.
The Company reclassified certain prior period amounts in the Statement of Cash Flows from Operating Activities to Financing Activities for payment of contingent consideration to conform to the current period presentation.
NOTE 2. | RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
Recently adopted accounting standards
In June of 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The updated accounting guidance requires changes to the recognition of credit losses on financial instruments not accounted for at fair value through net income. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020 and recognized the decrease in the allowance for doubtful accounts, net of tax, as a $2.5 million increase to beginning retained earnings.

ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily related to accounts receivables and financed receivables derived from customer services revenue. To reduce credit risk for residential pest control accounts receivable, we promote enrollment in our auto-pay programs. In general, we may suspend future services for customers with past due balances. The Company’s credit risk is generally low with a large number of entities comprising Rollins’ customer base and dispersion across many different geographical regions.
The Company manages its financing receivables on an aggregate basis when assessing and monitoring credit risks. The Company’s established credit evaluation and monitoring procedures seek to minimize the amount of business we conduct with higher risk customers. The credit quality of a potential obligor is evaluated at the loan origination based on an assessment of the individual’s Beacon/credit bureau score. Rollins requires a potential obligor to have good credit worthiness with low risk before entering into a contract. Depending upon the individual’s credit score, the Company may accept with 100% financing or require a significant down payment or turn down the contract. Delinquencies of accounts are monitored each month. Financing receivables include installment receivable amounts which are due subsequent to one year from the balance sheet dates.
The Company’s allowances for credit losses for trade accounts receivable and financed receivables are developed using historical collection experience, current economic and market conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and a review of the current status of customers’ receivables. The Company’s receivable pools are classified between residential customers, commercial customers, large commercial customers, and financed receivables. Accounts are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when the Company determines that amounts are uncollectible, and recoveries of amounts previously written off are recorded when collected. Below is a roll forward of the Company’s allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminated the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (i.e., Step 2 of the current goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities would record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value (i.e., measure the charge based on the current Step 1). The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard had no material impact on its consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The updated accounting guidance modified the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements by removing certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifying existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adding new disclosure requirements. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 effective January 1, 2020 and the adoption did not materially impact its financial statement disclosures.

ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Recently issued accounting standards to be adopted in 2021 or later
In December, 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes (topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The standard eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period (1) exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation (2) exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments and (3) exceptions in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The ASU also is designed to improve financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance and simplify GAAP for (1) franchise taxes that are partially based on income, (2) transactions with a government that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill, (3) separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax, and (4) enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The standard in this update is effective for the Company’s financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning in 2021. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 4. | EARNINGS PER SHARE |
The Company follows ASC 260, Earnings Per Share (ASC 260) that requires the reporting of both basic and diluted earnings per share. Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net income available to participating common stockholders by the weighted average number of participating common shares outstanding for the period.

NOTE 5. | CONTINGENCIES |
In the normal course of business, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are defendants in a number of lawsuits, claims, arbitrations, regulatory actions or investigations which allege that the subsidiaries’ services caused damage or in evaluating the Company’s practices. In addition, the Company defends employment-related cases and claims from time to time. We are involved in certain environmental matters primarily arising in the normal course of business. We are actively contesting each of these matters.
Management does not believe that any pending claim, proceeding, litigation, regulatory action or investigation, either alone or in the aggregate will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity; however, it is possible that an unfavorable outcome of some or all of the matters, however unlikely, could result in a charge that might be material to the results of an individual quarter or year.
NOTE 6. | FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, notes receivable, accounts payable and other short-term liabilities. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their respective fair values.
At September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had $33.8 million and $51.8 million of acquisition holdback and earnout liabilities with the former owners of acquired companies. The earnout liabilities were discounted to reflect the expected probability of payout, and both earnout and holdback liabilities were discounted to their net present value on the Company’s books and are considered level 3 liabilities. The table below presents a summary of the changes in fair value for these liabilities.

NOTE 8. | LEASES |
The Company leases certain buildings, vehicles, and equipment in order to reduce the risk associated with ownership. The Company elected the practical expedient approach permitted under ASC 842 not to include short-term leases with a duration of 12 months or less on the balance sheet. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, all leases were classified as operating leases. Building leases generally carry terms of 5 to 10 years with annual rent escalations at fixed amounts per the lease. Vehicle leases generally carry a fixed term of one year with renewal options to extend the lease on a monthly basis resulting in lease terms up to 7 years depending on the class of vehicle. The exercise of renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. It is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the renewal options on its vehicle leases. The measurement of right-of-use assets and liabilities for vehicle leases includes the fixed payments associated with such renewal periods. We separate lease and non-lease components of contracts. Our lease agreements do not contain any material variable payments, residual value guarantees, early termination penalties or restrictive covenants.
The Company uses the rate implicit in the lease when available; however, most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Accordingly, we estimate our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at lease commencement.

According to the Employee Stock Incentive Plan, restricted shares automatically vest upon the death of an employee holding the unvested shares. The increase in pre-tax compensation expense for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was the result of the accelerated vesting of unvested restricted shares held by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, R. Randall Rollins, who passed away in August, 2020.

NOTE 13. | DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives
The Company is exposed to certain interest rate risks on our outstanding debt and foreign currency risks arising from our international business operations and global economic conditions. The Company enters into certain derivative financial instruments to lock in certain interest rates, as well as to protect the value or fix the amount of certain obligations in terms of its functional currency, the U.S. dollar.
Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk
The Company uses interest rate swap arrangements to manage or hedge its interest rate risk. Notwithstanding the terms of the swaps, the Company is ultimately obligated for all amounts due and payable under the Revolving Commitment and the Term Loan (“Credit Facility”). The Company does not use such instruments for speculative or trading purposes.
On June 19, 2019, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap for an aggregate notional amount of $100.0 million in order to hedge a portion of the Company’s floating rate indebtedness under the Credit Facility. The Company designated the swap as a cash flow hedge. The swap requires us to pay a fixed rate of 1.94% per annum on the notional amount. The cash flows from the swap began June 30, 2019 and ends on December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2019, $0.3 million had been recorded as an Accumulated Loss in Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”). An additional loss of $0.3 million was recorded in AOCI in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Realized gains and losses in connection with each required interest payment are reclassified from AOCI to interest expense during the period of the cash flows. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reclassified into interest expense $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was recorded as $0.7 million in Other Current Liabilities at September 30, 2020. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was recorded as $0.2 million in Other Current Liabilities and $0.1 in Long-Term Liabilities for a combined obligation of $0.3 million at December 31, 2019. On a quarterly basis, management evaluates any swap agreement to determine its effectiveness or ineffectiveness and records the change in fair value as an adjustment to AOCI. Management intends that the swap remains effective.

ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk
The Company is exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against its functional currency, the US dollar. We use foreign currency derivatives, specifically vanilla foreign currency forward contracts (“FX Forwards”), to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the USD-CAD and AUD-USD exchange rates. FX Forwards involve fixing the foreign currency exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. The FX Forwards are typically settled in US dollars for their fair value at or close to their settlement date. We do not currently designate any of these FX Forwards under hedge accounting, but rather reflect the changes in fair value immediately in earnings. We do not use such instruments for speculative or trading purposes, but rather use them to manage our exposure to foreign exchange rates. Changes in the fair value of FX Forwards were recorded in other income/expense and were equal to a net loss of $0.1 million and a net gain of $0.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and a net loss of $0.4 million and a net loss of $12 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s FX Forwards was recorded as $0.1 million in Other Current Liabilities at September 30, 2020 and was a net obligation of $0.2 million in Other Current Liabilities at December 31, 2019.
As of September 30, 2020, the Company had the following outstanding FX Forwards (in thousands except for number of instruments):

ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
On October 28, 2020, the Company reported third quarter revenues of $583.7 million, an increase of 4.9% over the prior year’s third quarter revenue of $556.5 million. Rollins’ net income increased 80.6% to $79.6 million, or $0.24 per diluted share for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, compared with $44.1 million, or $0.13 per diluted share for the same period in 2019. The quarter ended September 30, 2020 was impacted by the one-time non-cash accelerated stock vesting of $6.7 million. The quarter ending September 30, 2019 was impacted by the after-tax pension settlement loss of $26.6 million.
Results of Operations:
THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 COMPARED TO THREE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019
COVID-19 Pandemic Impact
Going into the quarter ended September 30, 2020, we had already made numerous operational adjustments to address the economic, health and safety challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic. These included new COVID-related procedures, modified customer service and related protocols, daily health screenings before entering shared offices, and a transition to remote work locations to reduce concentrations of personnel in offices where appropriate. Cost containment efforts included furloughs, layoffs, elimination of non-essential travel, postponing capital expenditures, and temporary salary reductions for upper management, among other actions.
Customer retention during the pandemic is less predictable, and of greater immediate concern. Our residential pest control business has remained consistent with seasonal trends, especially as temperatures rise across the U.S. and pest activity increases. Through the date of this filing, our commercial pest control business has been more adversely impacted, as it crosses multiple industries such as healthcare, food processing, logistics, grocery, retail and hospitality. Each of these industries is being impacted differently by the pandemic. Many of our commercial customers continue to operate as “essential” businesses; however, unfortunately there are a notable number of others forced to temporarily close their doors. We expect this impact will persist for the remainder of 2020 and beyond, and that the degree of the impact will depend on the extent and duration of the economic contraction.
While we have a substantial amount of intangible assets on our balance sheet, based on our third quarter revenues, we do not anticipate any significant long-term loss in revenues or cash flows that would approach a level for impairment of intangible assets.
All of our critical supply-chain vendors have remained operational, and we have engaged additional new sources to supplement our existing suppliers, especially for critical PPE and other COVID-19 related items. Fleet suppliers and support vendors continue to serve our needs.
Revenue
Revenues for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 increased $27.2 million, or 4.9%, to $583.7 million compared to $556.5 million for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019. Approximately 1.4 percentage points of the 4.9% increase in revenues came from acquisitions, while growth in customers and pricing made up the remaining 3.5 percentage points.
The Company has three primary service offerings: commercial pest control, residential pest control and termite, including ancillary services. During the third quarter ended September 30, 2020, commercial pest control revenue approximated 34% of the Company’s revenues, residential pest control approximated 47% of the Company’s revenues, and termite and ancillary service revenue approximated 18% of the Company’s revenues.

ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Our commercial customers’ operations were most heavily impacted by the various governmental shelter-in-place mandates and their negative effect on small to medium size businesses. As a result, when comparing the third quarter of 2020 to the third quarter of 2019, the Company’s commercial pest control revenue decreased 2.5%. However, the Company believes the launch of its VitalClean sanitation services helped some of its commercial customers reopen and protect their employees and customers. By contrast, demand for our residential pest control service offerings grew significantly during the third quarter of 2020. For example, mosquito sales grew more than 30% compared to the third quarter of 2019. The Company believes with many people working from or confined to their homes, the awareness of unwanted pests has helped contribute to our growth in residential service revenues. Comparing the third quarter of 2020 to the third quarter of 2019, residential pest control revenue grew 10.6%. Termite and ancillary services revenue grew 6.2%. Foreign operations accounted for approximately 7% of total revenues during the third quarters of each of 2020 and 2019.
Revenues are impacted by the seasonal nature of the Company’s pest and termite control services. The increase in pest activity, as well as the metamorphosis of termites in the spring and summer (the occurrence of which is determined by the change in seasons), has historically resulted in an increase in the Company’s revenues as evidenced by the following chart:

Year ended December 31, | $ | 1,624,928 | $ | 2,015,477 | $ | 1,821,565 |
Revenues are also impacted by the Company’s acquisitions. For the third quarters of 2020, 2019, and 2018, acquisitions increased revenues by $7.6 million, $37.4 million, and $14.2 million, respectively.
Cost of Services Provided
Cost of Services provided for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 increased $6.8 million, or 2.5%, to $275.5 million, compared to $268.7 million for the third quarter of the prior year. Gross Margin for the third quarter of 2020 was 52.8%, up 1.1 percentage points from 51.7% for the third quarter of 2019. During the quarter, the Company’s margin improvement was driven by expense reductions in the following areas:
· | Service salary and benefit savings as a percentage of revenues; and |
· | Lower fuel prices and improved routing and scheduling efficiencies, which reduced fleet expenses. |
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 increased $0.7 million to $22.4 million, an increase of 3.3% from the same period in the prior year. Depreciation increased $1.0 million due to acquisitions and equipment purchases, while amortization of intangible assets decreased $0.3 million due to the amortization of customer contracts being completed for certain acquisitions.
Sales, General and Administrative
Sales, general and administrative expenses for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 decreased to 28.8% of revenues, increasing $0.8 million, or 0.5%, to $168.0 million, compared to $167.2 million or 30.0% of revenues for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019. The following factors contributed to the control of Company spending:
· | Administrative salary and benefit savings as a percentage of revenues; |
· | Lower fuel prices reduced sales and administrative fleet expenses; |
· | Elimination of other non-essential spending reduced meeting, travel and office supply expense; and |
· | Reduced acquisition activity compared to 2019 resulted in lower professional services expense. |

ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 was $0.9 million compared to $2.8 million for the same period last year. The change was driven primarily by the lower average debt balance in 2020 compared to the same quarter in 2019.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 26.9% for the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 compared to 4.5% for the third quarter ended September 30, 2019 which was low as a result of the Company’s pension settlement tax benefit. Additional increases in the effective tax rate for third quarter ended September 30, 2020 were primarily due to reductions in certain beneficial deductions.
NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2020 COMPARED TO NINE MONTHS ENDED SEPTEMBER 30, 2019
Revenue
Revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased $115.4 million or 7.6% to $1.625 billion compared to $1.509 billion for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Approximately 4.0 percentage points of the 7.6% increase in revenues came from acquisitions, while growth in customers and pricing made up the remaining 3.6 percentage points.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, commercial pest control revenue approximated 35% of the Company’s revenues, residential pest control approximated 45% of the Company’s revenues, and termite and ancillary service revenue approximated 19% of the Company’s revenues. Comparing the first nine months of 2020 to the first nine months of 2019, the Company’s commercial pest control revenue decreased 0.5%, residential pest control revenue grew 14.2%, and termite and ancillary services revenue grew 9.8%. Foreign operations accounted for approximately 7% and 8% of total revenues during the first nine months of 2020 and 2019, respectively.
Cost of Services Provided
Cost of Services provided for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased $42.9 million, or 5.8%, to $782.2 million, compared to $739.3 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. Gross Margin for the first nine months of 2020 was 51.9%, up 0.9 percentage points from 51.0% for the first nine months of 2019. Margin improvement was driven by the following:
· | Furloughs and layoffs, which resulted in a reduction of service salaries as a percentage of revenues; and |
· | Lower fuel prices and improved routing and scheduling efficiencies, which reduced fleet expenses. |
Depreciation and Amortization
Depreciation and amortization expense for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 increased $7.4 million to $65.9 million, an increase of 12.7% from the same period in the prior year. Depreciation increased $4.0 million due to acquisitions and equipment purchases while amortization of intangible assets increased $3.4 million due to the amortization of customer contracts from several acquisitions.

Sales, General and Administrative
Sales, General and Administrative Expenses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 decreased to 30.6% of revenues, increasing $28.5 million, or 6.1%, to $497.1 million, compared to $468.6 million or 31.0% of revenues for the nine months ended September 30, 2019. The following factors contributed to the control of Company spending:
· | Administrative salary and benefit savings as a percentage of revenues; |
· | Lower fuel prices reduced sales and administrative fleet expenses; |
· | Elimination of other non-essential spending reduced meeting, travel and office supply expense; and |
· | Reduced acquisition activity compared to 2019 resulted in lower professional services expense. |
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense for the first nine months ended September 30, 2020 was $4.5 million, which was roughly equal the same period last year. The expense was driven from new financing borrowed in April 2019 to fund acquisition growth.
Income Taxes
The effective tax rate was 26.0% for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 compared to 19.3% for the nine months ended September 30, 2019 which was low as a result of the Company’s pension settlement tax benefit. Additional increases to the effective tax rate for nine months ended September 30, 2020 were primarily due to reductions in certain beneficial deductions.

ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company believes its current cash and cash equivalents balances, future cash flows expected to be generated from operating activities and available borrowings under its $175.0 million revolving credit facility and $250.0 million term loan facility will be sufficient to finance its current operations and obligations, and fund expansion of the business for the foreseeable future. The Company’s operating activities generated net cash of $340.6 million and $243.9 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The Company made no contributions to its sole remaining defined benefit retirement plan during the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and had approximately $1.2 million of benefit plan assets remaining as of September 30, 2020.
The Company invested approximately $17.7 million in capital expenditures, exclusive of expenditures for business acquisitions, during the nine months ended on September 30, 2020, compared to $18.7 million during the same period in 2019. Non-essential capital expenditures for 2020 have been cancelled in response to the pandemic crisis. Capital expenditures for the nine months ended on September 30, 2020 consisted primarily of the purchase of operating equipment replacements and technology-related projects. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company made expenditures for acquisitions totaling $79.9 million, compared to $431.2 million during the same period in 2019. A total of $91.7 million was paid in cash dividends (an aggregate of $0.28 per share) during the nine month period ended September 30, 2020, compared to $103.1 million paid in cash dividends (an aggregate of $0.315 per share) during the same period in 2019.
On October 27, 2020, the Company announced that the Board of Directors approved a three-for-two stock split of the Company’s common shares. The split will be affected by using one additional share of common stock for every two shares of common stock held. The additional shares will be distributed on December 10, 2020 to stockholders of record at the close of business on November 10, 2020. Fractional share amounts resulting from the split will be paid to shareholders in cash. In addition, the Company declared a regular quarterly cash dividend on its common stock of $0.08 per share plus a special year-end dividend of $0.13 per share both payable on December 10, 2020 to stockholders of record at the close of business November 10, 2020, to be funded with existing cash balances and available credit facilities. Dividends will be paid on pre-split shares. The Company expects to continue to pay cash dividends to common stockholders, subject to the earnings and financial condition of the Company and other relevant factors.
The Company did not repurchase shares of its common stock on the open market during the first nine months of 2020 or during the same period in 2019. The Company has had a buyback program in place for a number of years and has routinely purchased shares when it felt the opportunity was desirable. The Board authorized the purchase of 11.25 million additional shares of the Company’s common stock in July 2012. These authorizations enable the Company to continue the purchase of Company common stock when appropriate, which is an important benefit resulting from the Company’s strong cash flows. The stock buy-back program has no expiration date. In total, 7.6 million additional shares may be purchased under the share repurchase program. The Company repurchased $8.1 million and $9.9 million of common stock for the first nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, from employees for the payment of taxes on vesting restricted shares. The acquisitions, capital expenditures, share repurchases and cash dividends were funded through existing cash balances, borrowings on our line of credit, a term loan, and operating activities.
The Company’s balance sheet as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019 includes short-term unearned revenues of $139.7 million and $122.8 million, respectively, representing approximately 6% of its annual revenue as of each balance sheet date. This represents cash paid to the Company by its customers in advance of services that will be recognized over the next twelve months. The Company’s total cash and cash equivalents of $95.4 million at September 30, 2020 is held at various banking institutions. Approximately $62.9 million is held in cash accounts at foreign bank institutions and the remaining balance is primarily held in non-interest-bearing accounts at various domestic banks. The Company’s international business is expanding, and we intend to continue to grow the business in foreign markets in the future through acquisitions of unrelated companies, reinvestment of foreign deposits and future earnings. Repatriation of cash from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries is not a part of the Company’s current business plan. The Company maintains a large cash position in the United States. The Company maintains adequate liquidity and capital resources that are directed to finance domestic operations and obligations and to fund expansion of its domestic business for the foreseeable future without regard to its foreign deposits.

Litigation
In the normal course of business, certain of the Company’s subsidiaries are defendants in a number of lawsuits, claims or arbitrations which allege that the subsidiaries’ services caused damage or regulatory actions or investigations evaluating the Company’s practices.

We are actively contesting each of these matters.
Management does not believe that any pending claim, proceeding, litigation, regulatory action or investigation, either alone or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial position, results of operations or liquidity; however, it is possible that an unfavorable outcome of some or all of the matters, however unlikely, could result in a charge that might be material to the results of an individual quarter or year.

The actual results of the Company could differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements because of various risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, the impact of the extent and duration of economic contraction related to COVID-19 on general economic activity for the remainder of 2020 and beyond; the impact of future developments related to the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company’s business, results of operations, accounting assumptions and estimates and financial condition; the possibility of an adverse ruling against the Company in pending litigation, regulatory action or investigation; general economic conditions; actions taken by our franchisees, subcontractors or vendors that may harm our business; market risk; changes in industry practices or technologies; a breach of data security; the degree of success of the Company’s termite process and pest control selling and treatment methods; damage to our brands or reputation; our ability to protect our intellectual property and other proprietary rights; the Company’s ability to identify and successfully integrate potential acquisitions; climate and weather conditions; competitive factors and pricing practices; our ability to attract and retain skilled workers, and potential increases in labor costs; changes in various government laws and regulations, including environmental regulations; and the existence of certain anti-takeover provisions in our governance documents, which could make a tender offer, change in control or takeover attempt that is opposed by the Company’s Board of Directors more difficult or expensive. All of the foregoing risks and uncertainties are beyond the ability of the Company to control, and in many cases the Company cannot predict the risks and uncertainties that could cause its actual results to differ materially from those indicated by the forward-looking statements. A more detailed discussion of potential risks facing the Company can be found in Part II, Item 1A. of each of the Company’s Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, respectively, and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2019. The Company does not undertake to update its forward-looking statements.

ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
As of September 30, 2020, the Company maintained an investment portfolio (included in cash and cash equivalents) subject to short-term interest rate risk exposure. The Company is subject to interest rate risk exposure through borrowings on its $175.0 million revolving credit facility and $250.0 million term loan facility. The Company is also exposed to market risks arising from changes in foreign exchange rates. See Note 13 to Part I, Item 1 for a discussion of the Company’s investments in derivative financial instruments to manage risks of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. The Company believes that this foreign exchange rate risk will not have a material impact upon the Company’s results of operations going forward.

ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, we conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”) as of September 30, 2020 (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of the Evaluation Date to ensure that the information required to be included in reports filed under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms.
In addition, management’s quarterly evaluation identified no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the third quarter that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially affect our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) is conducting an investigation, which the Company believes is primarily focused on how it established accruals and reserves at period-ends and the impact of those accruals and reserves on reported earnings. The investigation relates to period-ends for periods beginning January 1, 2015. The Company is fully cooperating with the SEC’s investigation. The Company cannot predict the outcome of this investigation. The Company’s Audit Committee retained independent counsel to conduct an internal investigation into matters related to the SEC investigation and, in particular, the Company’s processes for establishing reserves for each quarter in the relevant periods. The investigation was concluded in October 2020. The Company, after consultation with the Audit Committee and the independent counsel, believes that its financial statements filed with the SEC on forms 10-K and 10-Q for the relevant periods fairly present in all material respects its financial condition, results of operations and cash flows as of their respective balance sheet dates and for the periods then ended.
See Note 5 to Part I, Item 1 for discussion of certain litigation.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the quarters ended March 31, 2020 and June 30, 2020, respectively, and in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission for the year ended December 31, 2019.

BASIS OF PREPARATION AND OTHER |
Basis of Preparation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. There has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Rollins, Inc. (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2019 other than updates related to Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments as noted below. Accordingly, the quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures herein should be read in conjunction with the 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions for the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Specifically, the Company makes estimates in its interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the termite accrual, which includes future costs including termiticide life expectancy and government regulations, the insurance accrual, which includes self-insurance and worker’s compensation, inventory adjustments, discounts and volume incentives earned, among others. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the U.S. and the world. This has resulted in authorities implementing numerous measures to contain the virus, including, but not limited to, travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and business limitations and shutdowns. The pest control industry was designated as “essential” by the Department of Homeland Security and the Company has been able to remain operational in every part of the world in which it operates. The Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the assumptions and estimates used in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial results for the quarter have been made. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature but complicated by the uncertainty surrounding the global economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. The severity, magnitude and duration, as well as the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. Therefore, our accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to COVID-19 and may change materially in future periods. The Company has only one reportable segment, its pest and termite control business. The Company’s results of operations and its financial condition are not reliant upon any single customer, a few customers, or the Company’s foreign operations. The Company reclassified certain prior period amounts in the Statement of Cash Flows from Operating Activities to Financing Activities for payment of contingent consideration to conform to the current period presentation.

Accounting Changes and Error Corrections [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS |
Recently adopted accounting standards In June of 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments.” The updated accounting guidance requires changes to the recognition of credit losses on financial instruments not accounted for at fair value through net income. The Company adopted ASU 2016-13 effective January 1, 2020 and recognized the decrease in the allowance for doubtful accounts, net of tax, as a $2.5 million increase to beginning retained earnings. ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
The Company is exposed to credit losses primarily related to accounts receivables and financed receivables derived from customer services revenue. To reduce credit risk for residential pest control accounts receivable, we promote enrollment in our auto-pay programs. In general, we may suspend future services for customers with past due balances. The Company’s credit risk is generally low with a large number of entities comprising Rollins’ customer base and dispersion across many different geographical regions. The Company manages its financing receivables on an aggregate basis when assessing and monitoring credit risks. The Company’s established credit evaluation and monitoring procedures seek to minimize the amount of business we conduct with higher risk customers. The credit quality of a potential obligor is evaluated at the loan origination based on an assessment of the individual’s Beacon/credit bureau score. Rollins requires a potential obligor to have good credit worthiness with low risk before entering into a contract. Depending upon the individual’s credit score, the Company may accept with 100% financing or require a significant down payment or turn down the contract. Delinquencies of accounts are monitored each month. Financing receivables include installment receivable amounts which are due subsequent to one year from the balance sheet dates. The Company’s allowances for credit losses for trade accounts receivable and financed receivables are developed using historical collection experience, current economic and market conditions, reasonable and supportable forecasts, and a review of the current status of customers’ receivables. The Company’s receivable pools are classified between residential customers, commercial customers, large commercial customers, and financed receivables. Accounts are written-off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when the Company determines that amounts are uncollectible, and recoveries of amounts previously written off are recorded when collected. Below is a roll forward of the Company’s allowance for credit losses for the nine months ended September 30, 2020.
In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-04, Intangibles-Goodwill and Other (ASC 350): Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which eliminated the requirement to calculate the implied fair value of goodwill (i.e., Step 2 of the current goodwill impairment test) to measure a goodwill impairment charge. Instead, entities would record an impairment charge based on the excess of a reporting unit’s carrying amount over its fair value (i.e., measure the charge based on the current Step 1). The Company adopted ASU 2017-04 effective January 1, 2020. The adoption of this standard had no material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU No. 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (ASC 820): Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The updated accounting guidance modified the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements by removing certain disclosure requirements related to the fair value hierarchy, modifying existing disclosure requirements related to measurement uncertainty and adding new disclosure requirements. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13 effective January 1, 2020 and the adoption did not materially impact its financial statement disclosures. ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Recently issued accounting standards to be adopted in 2021 or later In December, 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12 Income Taxes (topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes. The standard eliminates the need for an organization to analyze whether the following apply in a given period (1) exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation (2) exceptions to accounting for basis differences when there are ownership changes in foreign investments and (3) exceptions in interim period income tax accounting for year-to-date losses that exceed anticipated losses. The ASU also is designed to improve financial statement preparers’ application of income tax-related guidance and simplify GAAP for (1) franchise taxes that are partially based on income, (2) transactions with a government that result in a step-up in the tax basis of goodwill, (3) separate financial statements of legal entities that are not subject to tax, and (4) enacted changes in tax laws in interim periods. The standard in this update is effective for the Company’s financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning in 2021. The adoption of this ASU is not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. |

FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS |
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, trade receivables, notes receivable, accounts payable and other short-term liabilities. The carrying amounts of these financial instruments approximate their respective fair values. At September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company had $33.8 million and $51.8 million of acquisition holdback and earnout liabilities with the former owners of acquired companies. The earnout liabilities were discounted to reflect the expected probability of payout, and both earnout and holdback liabilities were discounted to their net present value on the Company’s books and are considered level 3 liabilities. The table below presents a summary of the changes in fair value for these liabilities.

LEASES |
The Company leases certain buildings, vehicles, and equipment in order to reduce the risk associated with ownership. The Company elected the practical expedient approach permitted under ASC 842 not to include short-term leases with a duration of 12 months or less on the balance sheet. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, all leases were classified as operating leases. Building leases generally carry terms of 5 to 10 years with annual rent escalations at fixed amounts per the lease. Vehicle leases generally carry a fixed term of one year with renewal options to extend the lease on a monthly basis resulting in lease terms up to 7 years depending on the class of vehicle. The exercise of renewal options is at the Company’s sole discretion. It is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the renewal options on its vehicle leases. The measurement of right-of-use assets and liabilities for vehicle leases includes the fixed payments associated with such renewal periods. We separate lease and non-lease components of contracts. Our lease agreements do not contain any material variable payments, residual value guarantees, early termination penalties or restrictive covenants. The Company uses the rate implicit in the lease when available; however, most of our leases do not provide a readily determinable implicit rate. Accordingly, we estimate our incremental borrowing rate based on information available at lease commencement. ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Lease Commitments Future minimum lease payments, including assumed exercise of renewal options at September 30, 2020 were as follows:
Future commitments presented in the table above exclude lease payments in renewal periods for which it is reasonably certain that the Company will exercise the renewal option. Total future minimum lease payments for operating leases, including the amount representing interest, are comprised of $93.9 million for building leases and $137.5 million for vehicle leases. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had additional future obligations of $3.7 million for leases that had not yet commenced. |

During the third quarter ended September 30, 2020 and during the same period in 2019, the Company did not repurchase shares on the open market. The Company repurchases shares from employees for the payment of their taxes on restricted shares that have vested. The Company repurchased $0.0 million and $0.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and $8.1 million and $9.9 million of common stock during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

The Company issues new shares from its authorized but unissued share pool. At September 30, 2020, approximately 4.9 million shares of the Company’s common stock were reserved for issuance. Time Lapse Restricted Shares
According to the Employee Stock Incentive Plan, restricted shares automatically vest upon the death of an employee holding the unvested shares. The increase in pre-tax compensation expense for the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020 was the result of the accelerated vesting of unvested restricted shares held by the Company’s Chairman of the Board, R. Randall Rollins, who passed away in August, 2020. ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
The following table summarizes information on unvested restricted stock outstanding as of September 30, 2020:

The Company made 18 acquisitions during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2020, and 30 acquisitions for the year ended December 31, 2019, some of which have been disclosed in various press releases and related Current Reports on Form 8-K. For the 18 acquisitions completed so far in 2020, the preliminary values of major classes of assets acquired and liabilities assumed recorded at the date of acquisition, as adjusted during the valuation period, are included in the reconciliation of the total consideration as follows (in thousands):
Goodwill from acquisitions represents the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of net assets of businesses acquired. For the period ended September 30, 2020, $44.6 million of goodwill was added related to the 18 acquisitions noted above. The cumulative carrying amount of goodwill was $619.7 million and $572.8 million at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Goodwill generally changes due to the timing of acquisitions, finalization of allocation of purchase prices of previous acquisitions and foreign currency translations. The carrying amount of goodwill in foreign countries was $74.3 million at September 30, 2020 and $55.8 million at December 31, 2019. The Company completed its most recent annual impairment analysis as of September 30, 2020. Based upon the results of this analysis, the Company has concluded that no impairment of its goodwill or other intangible assets was indicated.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities Disclosure [Abstract] | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES |
Risk Management Objective of Using Derivatives The Company is exposed to certain interest rate risks on our outstanding debt and foreign currency risks arising from our international business operations and global economic conditions. The Company enters into certain derivative financial instruments to lock in certain interest rates, as well as to protect the value or fix the amount of certain obligations in terms of its functional currency, the U.S. dollar. Cash Flow Hedges of Interest Rate Risk The Company uses interest rate swap arrangements to manage or hedge its interest rate risk. Notwithstanding the terms of the swaps, the Company is ultimately obligated for all amounts due and payable under the Revolving Commitment and the Term Loan (“Credit Facility”). The Company does not use such instruments for speculative or trading purposes. On June 19, 2019, the Company entered into a floating-to-fixed interest rate swap for an aggregate notional amount of $100.0 million in order to hedge a portion of the Company’s floating rate indebtedness under the Credit Facility. The Company designated the swap as a cash flow hedge. The swap requires us to pay a fixed rate of 1.94% per annum on the notional amount. The cash flows from the swap began June 30, 2019 and ends on December 31, 2021. As of December 31, 2019, $0.3 million had been recorded as an Accumulated Loss in Other Comprehensive Income (“AOCI”). An additional loss of $0.3 million was recorded in AOCI in the nine months ended September 30, 2020. Realized gains and losses in connection with each required interest payment are reclassified from AOCI to interest expense during the period of the cash flows. During the quarter and nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company reclassified into interest expense $0.3 million and $0.5 million, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was recorded as $0.7 million in Other Current Liabilities at September 30, 2020. The fair value of the Company’s interest rate swaps was recorded as $0.2 million in Other Current Liabilities and $0.1 in Long-Term Liabilities for a combined obligation of $0.3 million at December 31, 2019. On a quarterly basis, management evaluates any swap agreement to determine its effectiveness or ineffectiveness and records the change in fair value as an adjustment to AOCI. Management intends that the swap remains effective. ROLLINS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
Hedges of Foreign Exchange Risk The Company is exposed to fluctuations in various foreign currencies against its functional currency, the US dollar. We use foreign currency derivatives, specifically vanilla foreign currency forward contracts (“FX Forwards”), to manage our exposure to fluctuations in the USD-CAD and AUD-USD exchange rates. FX Forwards involve fixing the foreign currency exchange rate for delivery of a specified amount of foreign currency on a specified date. The FX Forwards are typically settled in US dollars for their fair value at or close to their settlement date. We do not currently designate any of these FX Forwards under hedge accounting, but rather reflect the changes in fair value immediately in earnings. We do not use such instruments for speculative or trading purposes, but rather use them to manage our exposure to foreign exchange rates. Changes in the fair value of FX Forwards were recorded in other income/expense and were equal to a net loss of $0.1 million and a net gain of $0.1 million for the quarter ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively and a net loss of $0.4 million and a net loss of $12 thousand for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. The fair value of the Company’s FX Forwards was recorded as $0.1 million in Other Current Liabilities at September 30, 2020 and was a net obligation of $0.2 million in Other Current Liabilities at December 31, 2019. As of September 30, 2020, the Company had the following outstanding FX Forwards (in thousands except for number of instruments):
The financial statement impact related to these derivative instruments was insignificant for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and year ended December 31, 2019. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Accounting, Policy [Policy Text Block] |
Basis of Preparation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q and therefore do not include all information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. There has been no material change in the information disclosed in the notes to the consolidated financial statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K of Rollins, Inc. (the “Company”) for the year ended December 31, 2019 other than updates related to Accounting Standards Update (ASU) No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (ASC 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments as noted below. Accordingly, the quarterly condensed consolidated financial statements and related disclosures herein should be read in conjunction with the 2019 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The preparation of interim financial statements requires management to make estimates and assumptions for the amounts reported in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Specifically, the Company makes estimates in its interim condensed consolidated financial statements for the termite accrual, which includes future costs including termiticide life expectancy and government regulations, the insurance accrual, which includes self-insurance and worker’s compensation, inventory adjustments, discounts and volume incentives earned, among others. In March 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of COVID-19 a global pandemic, which continues to spread throughout the U.S. and the world. This has resulted in authorities implementing numerous measures to contain the virus, including, but not limited to, travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter-in-place orders, and business limitations and shutdowns. The pest control industry was designated as “essential” by the Department of Homeland Security and the Company has been able to remain operational in every part of the world in which it operates. The Company’s consolidated financial statements reflect estimates and assumptions made by management that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and related disclosures as of the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements. The Company considered the impact of COVID-19 on the assumptions and estimates used in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s financial results for the quarter have been made. These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature but complicated by the uncertainty surrounding the global economic impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The results of operations for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire year. The severity, magnitude and duration, as well as the economic consequences of the COVID-19 pandemic, are uncertain, rapidly changing and difficult to predict. Therefore, our accounting estimates and assumptions may change over time in response to COVID-19 and may change materially in future periods. The Company has only one reportable segment, its pest and termite control business. The Company’s results of operations and its financial condition are not reliant upon any single customer, a few customers, or the Company’s foreign operations. The Company reclassified certain prior period amounts in the Statement of Cash Flows from Operating Activities to Financing Activities for payment of contingent consideration to conform to the current period presentation. |
